Clicked: Riteish Deshmukh posing for Diwali photograph with his family

Even though Riteish Deshmukh’s last film Banjo failed to create any music at the Box-Office, that hasn’t dampened his spirits. Riteish Deshmukh, who has always placed his family over everything else celebrated Diwali with his family.

As a ‘memorabilia’ of this year’s Diwali, Riteish Deshmukh and his family posed for a group photograph. What was striking about the (adjoining) photograph was that, besides Riteish Deshmukh’s wife Genelia D’souza, and their two children Riaan Deshmukh and Rahyl Deshmukh and his mother Vaishali Deshmukh, the photograph also had a life-size portrait of his (late) father Vilasrao Deshmukh. Riteish Deshmukh, who celebrated Diwali and New Year (Padwa in Marathi), captioned the photograph as “Family is everything #HappyDiwali #HappyPadwa”.
